True Love Comes at a Price
High School Track Field 8:00 P.M.
She took a good look around the old track field. As she did many memories came back to her. The first time she met Van when he slayed that horrible dragon to become king. 'No, Dragons aren't horrible they just sense your anger and fear, that's when they attack you.' she said to herself mentally.
It was six hours after her graduation and celebration; although the only thing that she thought about and was able to help her get through school during that time was Van. She missed him so much and couldn't bear to be without him any longer. She needed to be right there with him; she regretted leaving him the minute she was back on Earth. When she told her mother she said that she could go back if she finished school, so she patiently finished school and became the best girl's track team member too.
None of this mattered to her; it was just another obstacle in her way. Once her graduation ceremony was done she reluctantly went to a graduation party too. When it was done she said goodbye to all of her friends and rushed home to pack her duffle bag.
When she went downstairs her mom, dad, and little brother were there to say goodbye.
"Oh Hitomi I'm so proud of you, and I hope that you will be happy where you go." Mrs. Kanzaki said as she embraced her daughter.
Once her mother was done and let go her father walked over and embraced her too.
"Hitomi take care now and be happy." Mr. Kanzaki said as he let go of her too.
Last was her little brother Mamoru. "Hitomi you are going to come back and visit us again aren't you?" he asked as he gave her a big hug.
"Yes, of course I will silly." she said giving him a smile and letting her go. Then she made her way to the track.
That was when she said her goodbyes, thirty minutes ago, and she was ready to return to him.
She slid her duffle bag over her shoulder and began to concentrate on Van. She hoped that at that time he was also thinking about her too.
Just in time to answer her question the familiar pillar of bright blue light came down and she was once again whisked off to that unforgettable planet.
The Fanelian Castle Roof
Van sighed as he looked over his sleeping kingdom which was now rebuilt; it looked just as beautiful as it did before it was attacked.
It took two and a half years to rebuild; Van had helped his people rebuild their kingdom and actually had the castle rebuilt last to ensure his people had a roof over their heads.
His people loved him for that; he was a king that put his people's needs above his own. It took help from Asturia and Freid to restore Fanelia to its original beauty.
Asturia and Freid both helped by sending troops, workers, and supplies to help with the work. In fact many of the other countries helped too.
About the only country that didn't help was Zaibach which was destroyed at the end of the Destiny War. After all who could blame them; Van was a hero in the destiny war.
None of that mattered the most to him; all he could think about was her. When she left him there was a tight squeeze in his chest and an unbearable pain that left a very big hole in his heart. He tried his hardest to forget about her, but that was impossible now.
He needed her by is side. He put his body and soul into helping his people, but it wasn't enough to make him forget about her.
"Oh Hitomi," he sighed, "I wish you were here with me right now."
As if the gods heard his wish he saw the clouds in the sky part and a bright pillar of blue light descend into the middle of one of Fanelia's most beautiful forests, but also the deadliest.
He couldn't believe what he was seeing; his heart wanted him to believe it but his mind thought it was just a hallucination. He had to check it out, so without another thought he slipped off his shirt and spread his beautiful snowy white wings which seemed to glow in the moonlight also sending pearly feathers everywhere.
He kicked off the ground and beat his wings, sending more feathers everywhere, and then he was on his way.
Though he was happy and excited he was also worried too. The bright pillar of blue light was in the dead center of the dragon's forest.
